Look for duplicates fails
From various merges I have done, i have about a thousand(s) duplicates in my address book that I am trying to zap. When I run the look for duplicates feature, it searches for a while but eventually the whole thing crashes. I've tried about 20 different times to run it.
Any advice?
Much appreciated.
Hello Caryn:
The only thing I can think of that might work is to trash a couple of preference files and restart:
com.apple.addressbook.plist
com.apple.addressbook.abd.plist

How to look for duplicate process instances?
In Oracle BPM 11g, is there a good way to look for duplicate process instances based on process data attributes? For example, I have entered an instance of a process for 'John Smith' with a date of '4/1/2010' and I want to see if there is another instance in the same process with these same data values to evaluate as a potential duplicate. I believe we can write a java service to invoke the API to do this, but I am wondering if there is a better way within the process design to do this (XPath extension functions or soemthing?). It seems like this would be a common need.
I am really looking for an approach to looking for duplicate instances within my process flow, not from EM. So, if the user starts a new instance of a process, I can check for another instance that appears to be a duplicate and direct the flow to a human activity to review the potential duplicate and make a decision as to whether to continue processing the new instance or reject it. My guess is that we need to us a service task to invoke java code which uses the API to investigate other instances with the same values. But, I was hoping for a simpler solution....I have to think that this is not too uncommon.

Why does iTunes Looking for iPad fail?
In iTunes when I click on Apps for my iPad listed under DEVICES and then select an app (usually FileMaker Go) and try to drag one of the app's files to the iMac desktop, I will get that iTunes is "Looking fo iPad" and then after a few seconds the iPad will disappear from the iTunes DEVICES list. After several times quit and launching iTunes and trying again, I will be able to get it to work FINALLY. I am accessing the iPad and my iPhone as well via wifi when I do this. I don't do this kind of operation nearly as often with my iPhone, but have had the same problem with it as well. I have connected the devices via usb, clicked on summary for the device, and unchecked and checked "Sync with this iPad (or iPhone depending) over Wi-Fi. That has not solved the problem. I am on Mac OS 10.8, iTunes 10, iOS 5.1.1 on both i-devices.
I just installed iTunes 10.7 and got a new router in case that was the problem. Still these devices just appear and disappear from itunes willy-nilly. Often the disappear when trying to move data to the idevice's app (mainly fm go), I'll get the message "Looking for iPhone" or iPad and then it will disappear from the iTunes DEVICES list. I guess no one else is having the problem as I have had no comments from any one in the community and I should just give up on this discussion.

sometimes I download hundreds of articles, pdf's, videos etc at one sitting, and cannot stop to watch whether or not some few of the items "fail" to completely download. Later, when scrolling down the whole list of recent downloads in the library I try to squint and see the tiny words notifying of a failed download but it is easy to miss the warning plus when there are hundreds of items it is VERY time-consuming to double click each item to attempt a re-download . . it usually DOES re-download ok BUT selecting this process sends the cursor back to the top of the library listings and now it takes forever to find your place back in the area where there were several "fails" listed together to continue the correction process for the whole list. Would be SO VERY MUCH better if and when a particular download fails, that a pop up window message would alert to that fact and a simple click within said window would automatically re-start the download, etc. That way a vital article would not later be discovered to have no content or error message, etc, just when one needed it and perhaps was not able to go online to fix it.
You can run this code in the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) to add a tooltip to the icon of each item in that list.
You probably need to scroll the full list to make Firefox update all attributes and you need to rerun the code in the browser console via cursor Up and Enter to update all tooltips after having done a new download.
If you run the code then you get a pop-up that shows some information of all selected items (Ctrl click multiple items).
You can open the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer).
Paste the JavaScript code in the command line and press the Enter key to run the code.

I want to do something like this....
Let's say my ITAB has MATNR & DUP fields & let's say ITAB has entries like this...
ITAB-MATNR ITAB-DUP
123
123
345
456
if any of the MATNR's are repeated in ITAB I want to flag DUP for such repeated records so the ITAB would look like below......
ITAB-MATNR ITAB-DUP

Is there any way to look for duplicate files on my hard drive?
I have tones of duplicated songs, photos and videos! How can I get rid of them?
Great advice Joe, it also depends a lot on Cesar's habits.
If he has rightfully imported music into iTunes and photos into iPhoto, then there should not be very many if any duplicates. Also it is just as important to not confuse ones iTunes and iPhoto Libraries as duplicates and mistakenly delete them.
Then again if one has a bad habit of dropping stuff on the desktop or just anywhere, then is is going to be very difficult to clean up. -
The question states it pretty simply. At one point, I thought Thunderbird prompted me to do this, but I can't rediscover what I did.
You can use this addon:

Optimizing a search for duplicate files in a filesystem
We have a large directory that people have been dumping to for years (~200k files), and I want to go through and look for duplicate files. The first part of this was just scanning through and checking for duplicate file names. I wrote a simple VI to serarch for duplicates, but it is very inefficiant because of multiple string comparisons. Even optimized as much as I could think to do, I'm only scanning about 1k files / minute. I have attached my code - any help would be appreciated.
Attachments:
search.vi 22 KBThis is trivial using the variant attributes mentioned earlier. Attached is my method which uses the Variant Repository XNode I developed. Not sure on performance comparisions.
EDIT: I'm betting the thing that will take the longest will be performing the MD5, I'm sure a CRC32 could be done faster which is probably just as good in this situation, or even a sum of the bytes of the file as a quick way of identifying the file.

Find Duplicate Files.vi 23 KB -
hi there.
i am running though an issue with looking for duplicates.
right now. my vi is searching for the duplicate, once it is found, it will display "duplicate found".
i am facing a new problem. lets say i have 10 devices and 10 positions those devices goes into my test box.
position 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
the device that read position 0, and 2 is close to one another. so when a device is put into position 0, it can be read on position 2.
and 2 can be read on position 4,
and 4 can be read on position 6,
so then 1,3 --- and 3,5 ---- and 5,7
and so forth.
thats because the hardware i designed didn't take into that consideration.
so now i think its best to fix the software.
does anyone have an idea of how to get rid of the DUPLICATE if the position is 2 positions away?
i have created a vi that generated what i started.

How can I scan documents for duplicate cells?
Hello!
I've created 5 separate mailing lists in Numbers. I want to scan all five for duplicate email address. Can anyone think of a way to do this?Hi fp,
Are the 'five mailing lists' in a single table? ...in multiple tables in a single document? ...in separate documents?
Are you looking for duplicates in each list, or duplicates that may appear in separate lists?
Here's an example, with two lists, each in a separate table.
Column C shows the number of this each address appears in the list in 'This Table' only.
C2, and filled down: =COUNTIF($B,$B2)
Column D shows the total for each address in both tables.
List 1::D2, and filled down: =COUNTIF($B,$B2)+COUNTIF(List 2 :: $B,$B2)
List 2::D2, and filled down: =COUNTIF($B,$B2)+COUNTIF(List 1 :: $B,$B2)
Tables that are in separate documents cannot be counted together as Numbers is unable to reference cells in other documents. The easiest way to handles these is to copy all the lists into a single document, code the rows to indicate which list it came from and its starting position in that list. the coding is to allow the combined list to be re-sorted into its original order to allow collecting each group's remaining members for pasting back to the original table.
Trim the list by deleting any row showing a count that is greater than one. Numbers formulas respond to any change in the table, so the count of the remaining copies (or copy) of that address will be immediately updated as each copy of the address is removed. Remember to stop when the count reaches 1.

Duplicate target database for standby failing with below error
Hello All, Need your assistance
We are creating a physical standby database (standalone) from 2 node RAC database, OS =RHEL5 and DB =11gR2
What we did: We took RMAN backup of primary DB along with archives and copied to standby server in same location. We have modified necessory prameters on primary as well as standby too.
The command we used :
RMAN>connect target sys/pwd@primary auxiliary sys/pwd@stdby
RMAN> run {
allocate auxiliary channel ch1 type disk;
duplicate target database for standby dorecover nofilenamecheck;
release channel ch1;
Note we tried : duplicate target database for standby as well as duplicate target database for standby nofilenamecheck methods too....But no luck..we are getting following error.
